Surreal. Like a bad dream you can't believe is true..
Same here, being in my house isn't the same even with little ones running about. Inside im screaming at those who ask if 'im OK' as the true answer is no I'll never be OK without my partner. He was and still is my everything i have to force myself out of bed in the mornings and do things as 'normal
Exactly!
Me too. This is not life, without him. It is forced, prolonged punishment.
I feel just the same way
Susan,
Since my beloved Husband Julian died I no longer feel a part of anything.
I don't want a normal life, I want to be with him.
Linda
That is exactly how I feel in my house "safe" and "close to Chuck", but I have no choice, I have to downsize. It's the practical choice. But it is tough. I have realized as each day goes by that I will never get used to my new normal (life without Chuck) but will have rejoin society at some point. Thank you for your words they gave me peace...Susan
Susan,
Don't let your friends and family tell you what you should be doing, do what you feel is the best thing for yourself. I still rent a home in Florida where my Husband took his last breath, I can't find it in myself to move back to Michigan nearer to family, this was the last place I lived with Julian and I feel safe here and that he is close by. After 5 years without him, I still have a hard time going on without him by m side, but I force myself to join in society. It does get better each year
but I will always be the same Linda and do not want to start over.
Hope the trip helps for awhile.
UUUGGG Just had to pay the funeral expenses off today has not been a good day but i have decided i need to get out of this house for a while so im going out of state to see a long time best friend. wish me luck lol.
